Havana by Night
Lime, mint, rum and brown sugar meet cigar smoke, sandalwood and amber in a Havana night.
Perfumer: Eak Chieochalakom
Night in Havana is the subject here. Squeezed lime and cool mint leaf sit beside rum and brown sugar, a line-up that reads almost like a cocktail glass: citrus chill on one side, the rich sweetness of brown sugar and the roundness of mellow rum on the other.
The other axis is cigar. Its dry smoke and faintly bitter leaf pull the sweetness out into the night air, while the smooth grain of sandalwood and the warmth of amber soften the edges of smoke and spirit.
From bright, snapping lime to mellow rum and smouldering cigar, the composition follows the city as the evening deepens, folded into a single scent.
